| Upgrading from Integrated Amp to Separates I’m doing the same. From integrated to separates. I made the decision to go with a company who makes all of it. I’m going Odyssey.My stereo Khartago should ship any day now. I added a bunch of upgrades and next year I’ll save and upgrade further. ... | |
| Morrow IC's My first set of >Blue Jean Cables arrived yesterday. MA-3’s. Quickly connected my Lounge to my amp and I must say, wider soundstage and a crispness I had not yet experienced. I played again the first record I played on the MA-3’s and then swit... | |
| Just ordered Odyssey Stratos Extreme I have a modded Khartago that should ship any day now. It will be followed by Candela later this year and a Suspiro phonostage next year. Italked to Klaus about music and the Odyssey sound and I was sold. I have not heard any Odyssey first hand bu... | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? @mastercylinder Klaus at Odyssey runs 1.7’s I believe. Call him about spec’ing out an amp. | |
| Mono Blocks on a Budget, is it possible? Odessey Audio. Call Klaus, he’ll ask about music and speakers and then make suggestions. Upgradeable and a 20 year warranty. Odysseyaudio.comthis is the correct path. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? OK, that can be your little secret then. Good luck. | |
| Ethernet Cables, do they make a difference? Digital cables can’t possibly improve anything. It’s just funneling 1’s and 0’s. Analog cables do influence the sound and I am a believer however. | |
| Phono Preamps with "balls" ? I’ve not heard personally but have been told the Odyssey Suspiro has a very powerful and forward sound to it. I’d call Klaus and talk tohim about it. It will be my next phonostage that’s for sure. Orysseyaudio.com | |
| Power for Focal Aria 936 Im running Chrous 807’s and yes, they are sensitive but also tough to drive. I ordered an Odyssey Khartago (stereo) to drive them. Khartagos are stable to 2 ohms and this was important to me as mine hit 4 ohms in the midbass frequencies. Despite a... | |
| Upgrading speaker cables... @dill is right. The key is how resolving your system is which will dictate how much difference you hear. | |
| Power Cord for Pass Int 60-Under 1K used I’d venture the stock cord is fine. Buy music instead. Seems a waste unless you are aiming for “forum hero™️“ | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) Source isn’t changing this year. Speakers stay.Spent $1500 on power amp (A-A/B @110wpc)Once funds are available: $1600 on preamp (tube hybrid?)Schiit Sys will fill in until funds make the preamp happen. After amp burn in I’ll change speaker cables... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) New system sourced. Over budget but since I elected to go separates I’ll try to be patient (ha) and pick things up one at a time. Firm game plan: Staying with same brand for amp/pre for synergy.Schiitt Sys is on its way to stand in for the preamp ... | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) Interesting. Well if anyone willpick the one single amp that sucks with their speakers it will definitely be me.Working on new amplification now. TIme to give that Marantz a new home. | |
| Looking for amp advice (punk, rock & reggae edition) It may simply be that you don't like how your amp sounds on this speaker, but the idea that it does not drive the speaker correctly is simply not true. So the fact that the speaker impedance is at its lowest in the midbass (4.2ohms at 118hz) an... |
